The wait for a new MLB game ended this week with MLB The Show 23. Developer San Diego Studio has surpassed all expectations set by The Show 22. The main attraction of the game is its online mode called Diamond Dynasty. Fans can create their dream team and compete against other players online. Many top players are locked behind packs and other hidden achievements. Let’s take a look at some beginner tips and the first steps you should take in MLB The Show 23.
What to Do First in MLB The Show 23 (Newbie Tips)
The first thing most players want to do after launching a game is to go directly to the online game. An understandable choice, but it is very difficult to play several games with only your starting XI. Playing offline game modes is a great way to unlock some decent cards that can have a huge impact on the team.
Complete Negro Leagues
This is a new addition to the series, in which players will learn the stories of great athletes who missed the respect they deserved. You can go through 8 different stories and unlock perks and rewards. The best part of playing this mode is the player cards you unlock at the end. Cards like Buck O’Neil Captain have an overall rating of 95, which can be earned for free just by playing the game mode.
Complete the starter program
Once you have completed your Diamond Dynasty training, you will be able to begin the entire Starter Program. They will include small missions and challenges that will reward you with more stubs and other perks. The Starter Program is an easy way to add cards like 87 Justin Verlander or 88 Sammy Sosa to your collection.
Play in conquest mode
Conquest is a game mode inspired by the board game Risk. Players can attack, defend, and claim territory on the map while taking on other MLB teams. Your goal is to capture as many tiles on the map as possible by using your team’s fans to attack or claim territory. This is a great mode to play offline as you can unlock all kinds of hidden rewards and earn valuable stubs.
